To all 'wle/om it concern.'

`Be it known that l, Roy Emir Moririii, a citizen o1" the United States,residing Colorado Springs, in the County of El lzjeso and State ofColorado, have invented a new and usetul Pile-Driving Maeliiiie, ofwhioh the following is a s Jeoiiieatiori.

My invention re ates to improvement-5 iii pile drivers iii which anadjustable derriolc is made to be moved from the perpendicular, andsupports by a hinge joint the guide frame and bars of the dropliainmei','so as to allow the guide frame for the hammer to be projectedfrom the base or ea'riage of the machine arid rigidly made to remainwhere adjusted, and having a frame upon which the said derrioli andguide frame may be moved to the right or left and forward or backward,froiii the carriage or bed upon which the driver is resting, simply andwithout impair ing the ellieienoy of the machine. attain these objectebymeans oi' the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawing, inwliioln- Figure l., is a vertical front View oi" the entire machine;Fig. 2,- is a v'ertioal side View,

` ol the entire machine with the guido frame Vertical and parallel withthe derriolr. g Fig. 3

is a side View 0i the entire machine like Fig. 2 except that the derriekis progeoted forward extending the guide frame from the derriol; i

Fig. 4, is a top View of the base oi the ma oliiiie with thesuperstructure removed 'to show the two hor'zental frames below; andFig. 5 is a vertical sectional View of the ham mer, taken in a plane atright angles to the guide bars, showing the anti-friction rollers.Similar lettere and figures to parte throughout the Several vie*y Thetwo horizontal frames D, and E, the derrioli (l, the guide irairie andthe liaiiirrier. cmistitote the principal parts of my iro, tion.
